You could add some pace with fast hihats but that would cheese it up too... another possibility would be to add some low noisy synth pads or short synth sequence sounds, but same thing would probably happen.

Yeah, everything I think I could do with it would degrade it rather
than adding to it.  So I think I am going to leave alone as it is.

Modern sounding?  Funny as I have been on a huge retro listening kick
lately.  I realized the other day I really have no clue about what is
going on in 'modern' electronic music.

Yep - all modular.  I basically created a patch, did a pass recording
it into a track in Live, then pull all the patch cords and do another
pass with a new patch.  After that, I went through and did some minor
arrangement tweaks and mixing.  It's a nice workflow, one that I am
really digging into.
